beautiful car, but if I can't drive it with the TCS off without voiding the warranty, then it's no fun. don't sell me a $90k car that can do 0-60 in under 4 seconds but only when you turn off the training wheels.

You cannot be serious about that, can you?

That's like saying a Ford Pinto looks like a Mustang.

There are similar styling cues, that's about it.

They are a badass looking car. but my buddy at Nissan curses and condemns them to hell. He said parts arent made in Japan anymore (Renault) and they tried to do to much. He said no warranty on car and they keep coming back with problems. Personally I dont like them as much as the old gtr's. But he did say itll haul a** when running right.
